Important Message from Recruiting Brainfood
Important Update: Please read and actionFriends, I rarely send an email like this off-schedule like this but given the speed at which things are moving at the newly Musk acquired Twitter, I feel it prudent to update you as soon as I can. Most of you know that…

So Elon Musk taking over Twitter has some consequences for Recruiting Brainfood, as Revue, the software that I use to write this newsletter, is fully owned by Twitter. I suspect it might be one of those which Musk might decide to either invest in or cut off e…

Been thinking about media a lot recently. It's pretty clear that our worldviews are informed by our 'informational diet' and it is important to understand that the stuff which gives you the sugar rush, is often the very thing which is going to be bad for you …

So I am back in London and I am thankful to say - going nowhere for the foreseeable. Got to say I need to review how I am doing traveling - way too much time spent actually on the move, way too little time in the places where I want to spend time. I think in …

So my buddy and long time brainfooder Pedro Oliveira has promised me dinner this Friday - an offer which I could not turn down because it's going to be in my favourite local restaurant in Lisbon, which does maybe the best food I've ever had. Yes, folks I am t…

Been quite cool to meet up with a few folks recently - seems like London based events are starting to happen but I think we're all suffering a little bit from having reconfigured our lives to do not be away from laptop for long chunks of time. Hence, the oppo…

So I'm back in London after spending a fabulous week in Madrid. I didn't know the city much at all before I arrived and I feel I know it a little better now having drank a few beers and had a few laughs there. Need to travel more I think, but perhaps do longe…

So it turns out I am 'fit to fly' so will be boarding a plane to Milan tomorrow for what is now sadly only a whistle stop, before spending most of the week in Madrid, where I hope there is still some residual summer to pick up the mood. See you in Madrid if y…

Fingers crossed, I will be in Gothenburg later this week, courtesy of our buddies at Adway. I'll be doing a talk on Global Talent Acquisition Trends, and maybe some more studio stuff on the Thurgsday. On Friday, I'll be livestreaming the Brainfood Live and Ch…

Last week in London before the crazy traveling starts up again. Get ready Gothenburg, Gdansk, Milan and Madrid - all happening in the first two weeks of September. If you're in any of those places, do let me know - going to try and gather some brainfooders to…

Last two weeks in London before some crazy traveling starts happening in September - and I suspect October and November. I've really enjoyed this mini-slowdown and its given me a chance to think about some more things to experiment with this year and next - s…

Well we are back in the middle of a heatwave, with the weather hitting a ridiculous 35C in central London. It's the sort of conditions which can reset priorities. We can enjoy the sun at times in the day but we become aware how oppressive it can be at others.…

I didn't plan on it but I had an amazing Italian meal last week, having been persuaded in by an overly long walk down Dalston and the charming wait staff pulling people inside. Got me thinking about pasta and so found this rather incredible website on the his…

So I'm really enjoying this 'empty' (ish) time in the year; basically not going anywhere until September, got no in person commitments all August, just plenty of time to figure out some new things to bring to the community later this year and for early next. …

I'm in London and really enjoying this empty time I have over the next month or so. There is something rather freeing in not having too many things to do - can get to work on some longer term projects, as well sort out my life admin, which has been so neglect…

London is sweltering folks, and hitting the sort of temperatures which we shouldn't be getting but will be getting as continue to cook the planet by burning fossil fuels. Preserving the incredible diversity of habitat in our planet must be a priority for our …

So for those in the know, Revue - the Twitter acquired newsletter service which I use to make this newsletter - was down for over 24 hours yesterday. The lack of communication during this time makes it clear that the service is not a priority for Twitter and …

So this week coming up, is all about one thing - RecFest!When Jamie first pitched me on the idea of a 'festival with recruiters' I couldn't imagine anything less appealing 🤣. But I showed up anyway and was so glad that I did - it is the best event in recruiti…
